Re: 2017 World Titles-Team USA

I'm not a contender but still dig kneeboarding and won't make it out of round 1, but got a few questions I can't figure out. Is there an AAA bracket etc.? What type of wave is Somo similiar to? I'm first impression is small Oceanside? I just can't find any video. Has anyone hit up San Sebastian, Bia...

Re: New Blast stoke

First session was awesome. So I was a little apprehensive because its an off the rack board and not a truly "custom." Silly on my part, this board works unreal for me and I'm on the heavier end at 225 to 230 and 6'2. Floated me perfectly and paddles surprisingly great. Surfed my favorite L...

Re: New Blast stoke

I can't remember what the blue boards offical design is called. I think when I ordered it I told him I mostly surf La Jolla reefs, works perfectly in them. For a while I thought it might be a stubb. What ever it is, I love it. The pads are Edgars design. This is my third set and they work perfectly ...

New Blast stoke

I got lucky and happened to come across a loose Blast for sale. I have wanted an F2K for years and one came up in my size 6'0 x 23 x 2.6 Had to grab it. My first and only Blast I got in 2005 I think, love the board. Ten plus years later the rail shape is exactly the same in feel. Love it. Going to r...

Re: Introducing Torsion Drive Stringers on Kneeboards BSD

Love the idea Barry and got me thinking. Ultimately there will a few different applications for different waves and different styles. Would be fun to suss it out with your tail flex. Kneeboarding is so different with loads applied especially since our center of gravity is so much lower. My first tho...

Re: Barry Snyder 6'2 quad

Here's the fins that Glen at Rainbow made for it. Beautiful and nice snug fit. I used some dawn dishsoap to get them in. :D Some of you will be very familiar with them. Here's Glen's take. He also made a pair of 80/20 trailers for a different feel. Looking forward to seeing the difference. The shado...

Barry Snyder 6'2 quad

New Board Stoke 6'2, 24, 2 3/4 Been looking to replace my only and most favorite board. A Blast 6'0 quad. Found a guy in Oceanside that could make me one for this winter, reluctant at first but ultimately had no choice. He's Barry Snyder. The guy know rockers and has made quite a few kneeboards over...

Kneeboard Glassing

What is the glassing like on a typical kneeboard? I think Buddy said he glassed two layers on the bottom as well. Does hes use 4 oz or 6oz? Is that right? My board has been going strong for 10 plus years with some serious impact drops. What about the Australian Shapers? Anybody really concerned on w...

Never knew how much flippers affected my kneeboarding.

I had a strap on one of duck feet break while out kneeboarding. They were due to break and wasn't to surprised because of all the striations on the strap. So after it broke on my left foot, I went right and freaked out. The board felt so weird, so much so that I didn't even like it, it was so unfami...

Re: do you have a frontside and backside?

Yes. I'm regular foot surfing but I think my front side and backside have a bit different approach probably drawn from surfing and the distinct difference front vs backside. I'd rather go right if I had a choice. I have a theory that side difference partially originates from which ever dominant side...

I love that island. I stayed outside of Pilar for a month back in 1996. Such good times and waves. The people are even nicer. You probably already have a boat, its necessary or it was back then. One of my favorite waves has a similar name to a famous Mexican beer, that place was always bigger and a ...

It's been a shitty past two years, but after seeing this....

Image

After seeing this...I really want to get out and surf again.

Sick Shot!

I blew out a ACL and have been scared to even think about pressure on the knees.

But after being depressed in a state of no surf, I can't wait to learn how to do this again.
